THRIVING restaurant brand Six by Nico will go alfresco this summer, as it teams up with the ‘Otherlands’ music festival taking place in the grounds of Scone Palace in August.

Festival goers are being promised a ‘one-of-a-kind woodland sensory dining experience’ as the Six By Nico away team dish up the brand’s signature six-course menu offering across August 12th and 13th at the prestigious Perthshire outdoor venue.

The Otherlands Arts and Music Festival was founded by Tom Ketley, owner of event promotion company FLY, and will feature a range of music, both live and electronic, encompassing punk, rock and rap. Acts already announced for 2023 include Hudson Mohawke, Skin On Skin, Nia Archives and Overmono.

The festival will also boast immersive art installations from leading Scottish artists, and host comedy direct from Edinburgh’s Fringe Festival, DJ Workshops, alongside talks and panel discussions with industry leaders.

Otherlands Festival Director, Sam Joss, said: “We’re so excited about this partnership! With food at festivals being more important than ever, this collaboration really aligns with our ethos and pairs well with boutique camping, a stunning location and of course, a globally recognised musical line-up.

“We can’t wait to see how our guests react to the creativity of the Six by Nico menu and enjoy this multi-sensory dining experience in the unbeatable setting that is Scone Palace.”

Chef and Chief Creative Officer at Six by Nico, Andy Temple, said: “We’re thrilled to be collaborating with Otherlands on this unique event. It’s something completely new for us, and I believe it represents a new creative turning point for our company.

“A multi-sensory dining idea pushes us outside of our comfort zone and is an exciting move in a new direction for Six by Nico, as part of our mission to innovate and challenge ourselves in designing a new menu every six weeks.”

He added: “Otherlands takes a multifaceted approach to their festival, celebrating music, wellness, and arts, and Six by Nico is excited to add to that with our new on-site dining experience. The festival itself brings people together to celebrate, and our team is delighted to be a part of it.”
